Columbus (WJER) (Feb. 6, 2024) – Final deer hunting numbers are in for the 2023-24 seasons in Ohio with another strong showing for Tuscarawas County, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources Division of Wildlife.

Archery season, which started in September, concluded on Sunday. More than 214,000 deer were taken when you combine the results of the archery, gun, muzzleloader, and youth hunting seasons since the fall. That’s the most since the 2012-13 season.

Tuscarawas County hunters harvested the second most in the state during those combined seasons at just over 7,000 deer.

Coshocton County had the most at more than 7,700.

Bow hunters accounted for a record of nearly 101,000 deer this season, which is the first time that number has exceeded 100,000.
